As I have spent most of my "animal life" out on a limb, let me step out again.

As members of the human race, exclusive of an industry, I think we all have a right to morally decide what we feel is acceptable without fear of repercussions and with a true knowledge of studied facts. I have never felt when the wild animal profession is slammed that it was directed at me personally. That shoe has never fit.

BB spelled the beginning of the end of great ape acts. Too bad big Vegas salaries doesn't equate to big ethics, just more expensive animals, no matter how they were aquired.

I believe the Berosini Family were sure the beginning and end of those type animals in those shows for some thirty years and they were fabulous. Also on the "road" with Chimps, Orangs and Gorilla, incredible. I worked with both father and sons and if there was abuse I never saw it. Next to them were the fabulous Gene bDetroy and his Marquee Chimps. Fabulous as well.
